Our Kiwanis Club has been suppling books to our Little Library Project at the Wyandotte County Courthouse. We get help from our local public library, club members, friends, families, garage sales and thrift stores. We feel it is important to promote reading and giving children the opportunity to get a free book while waiting on parents who need to be in court. There are carts outside 5 courtrooms.
